Mammoth Motocross

We just got back from Mammoth Lakes, CA for the 2011 Mammoth motocross. As usual, the race is super fun and the atmosphere surrounding the event is awesome. By far one of the best nationals to attend and is always a great time. This year the track was better than the years past and made for some super fun racing. the weekend started out well for me with practice and then the first race. I was able to bust a nice holeshot the first day and came away with a 2nd in the open intermediate class. The second day of racing was the 250 class. I didn't get the greatest of starts this time and started just outside the top five. I worked my way up to third before getting a front flat tire and ended up finishing the moto in 4th overall. The final day of racing was the 450 class and I was looking forward to finishing off the weekend well and getting back home. I started the moto with a decent start and was in third by the second lap. I rode in third for awhile before getting passed by one guy and then going down shortly after that. I got up and rode the last few laps of the moto and finished in 8th overall. It was a fairly good weekend with its ups and downs, but I learned a lot with myself and the bikes and I cant wait until Ponca and Loretta's as they are fast approaching.

Overalls:
Open Intermediate - 2nd
250 Intermediate - 4th
450 Intermediate - 8th

See ya at the races,
